But we behold him who
hath been made a little lower than the angels, even Jesus, because of
the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God
he should taste of death for every man.

Since then the children are
sharers in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same;
that through death he might bring to nought him that had the power of death,
that is, the devil;

Wherefore it behooved him in all things to be made like unto
his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in
things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.
